1) Cozy & Comfy
Flaunting a color that one could absolutely nail in a saree attire sounds, elegant and
cozy at the same time. Being the bride’s bestie often comes with lots of unexpected
hustles and errands. Hence, it is important to pull off something classy yet cozy to run
around and get your tasks done in a jiffy.
If you are a saree enthusiast, then make sure to handpick a color that beautifully
compliments your features and enhances your confidence. Majorly, one might not get
a quick vanity moment for makeup touch-ups and a hair fix. Thereby, your outfit shall
be sharp and sleek to restore confidence now and then.
2) Festive Glam
The first rule to ace your bestie’s wedding aesthetics is to follow the dress codes that
she would love to see you in on her wedding day. From Haldi bash to post-wedding
cocktail parties, one must take time to hunt down the perfect fit for each event.
For pre-wedding events like Haldi, make sure to coordinate your yellow attire with
that of the bride. Along with syncing the yellow Haldi palette, you shall land some
amazing candids and ceremonial portraits upon putting a good effort into twinning
with your bestie or bride’s attire.
3) The Daawani Look
The ‘half saree looks’ or ‘Daawani looks’ for bride’s best friend is one of the most
famous looks in traditional Tamil Hindu weddings. Not only does it go with the
traditional Tamil wedding culture but also gives the best comfort as it comes with a
flared skirt, a lovely long Dupatta and a saree blouse.
Clearly, the flared skirt helps one move around so smoothly as it is often tailored of
lightweight, soft silk fabric. And, the Dupatta or the Choli wraps around the upper
half of a customary saree drape in South India. Also, you can add temple jewels and a
‘Kamar Bandh’ to take your outfit to the next level!
4) Twinning Colors
For the wedding day, twinning your outfit with the bride is felt as a special feature by
many of us. Oftentimes, it is not as easy as it sounds! The best point you could take
down is to keep the color in mind and hunt down the favorite festive attire that you
fancy wearing at the wedding.
At times, you could get lucky with the same outfit category as the bride but the main
motive here is to be by her side no matter how precise the color of your outfit is to
that of the bride’s outfit color.
5) Besties’ Code
Talking about color coding with the bride’s attire, the bride squad often seems to be
coordinating each other’s outfits. Though identical outfits are worn by bridesmaids at
Christian weddings, it is not always possible to appear in such codes for all the
ceremonies.
Hence, for events like pre-wedding bashes, bridal showers and bachelor parties, the
girls’ team could appear in attires that stand out from the other guests. For example,
the team can either go for a particular outfit category that leaves a statement look like
shararas or they may block a particular color palette that stands out. Sometimes, the
bride squad manages to achieve both of these ideas to surprise the bride!
6) More Groundbreaking Ideas
Have you ever thought of sourcing the same Kanjeevaram silk fabric of the bride’s
attire to create a sassy bestie’s fit for her big day? Take a trip to the market and source
your favorite color and pattern in the same fabric as the bride’s wedding day look.
From lehenga cholis to a sleek traditional gown outfit, you will be magically in sync
with the bride’s outfit.
Certainly, we know that bridal-fit fabrics are often high on the budget. Therefore, you
could also go for similar fabric choices that will not burn a hole in your pocket!
Interestingly, your tailor can do a handful of tricks to make the final look unique, rare
and aesthetic!
7)A Confidence Boost
Going for a minimal version of your bride’s wedding look can be the best support at
times her besties can offer. Though some brides refrain from seeing a minimal version
of her wedding look on others, some tend to fall in love with the idea as it pumps their
confidence while strolling with their besties beside them.
Here, you may go for a simplified, subtle version of the bride’s outfit choice. Be it a
lehenga or a saree or even a sparkling sharara style, you may style a subtle yet chic
version of the same outfit category. Undoubtedly, minimalism is taking the wedding
fashion with a roar.
8)Lehenga-Choli Trends
We will not depart from an Indian wedding without spotting at least one lehenga choli
festive look. Hence, we decided to have an extended discussion on this special look.
From Bollywoold-inspired knotted blouse backs to traditional border designs, there is
no other perfect attire a bride’s bestie can go for than a well-fitted lehenga choli.
Not only does it flaunts most body shapes but also enhances one’s prominent features
in the best way possible! And, you may add flowers and quirky Indian jewels to finish
it up with a touch of vintage inspiration. Most importantly, if you have a performance,
you can completely trust a lehenga look for getting into those action-packed moves
with one hundred percent grace and comfort.
9)The Kerala Style
Embracing the traditional attires to twin with the soon-to-wed is never a dull choice!
Kerala traditional Kasavu sarees are perfect for Indian summers and there’s nothing
more elegant than draping a soft cotton Kasavu mundu attire or saree look for temple
weddings.
Definitely, there are unlimited ways one can customize a Kerala Kasavu attire for
bride’s friend as the color and fabric itself is built of minimalistic elements one could
ever find in Indian traditional wedding looks. From handmade paintings and
embroideries to ornamental designer blouses and crafty jewels, one can create sheer
magic from Kerala’s traditional Kasavu attires.
10) More Lehenga Secrets
Minimal lehenga-cholis for bride’s bestie without a dupatta feels so much lighter
and hustle-friendly when it comes to dressing up as the bride’s bestie. Though the
dupatta plays an important role in adding that sassiness and grace to a lehenga choli
attire, you can also power up a skirt attire by adding interesting details like hangings
and brocade works.
Added to that, personalizations like adding the initials of the bride or experimental
statement works are some other options to try. Along with dressing up special for the
soon-to-be-wed, feeling yourself beautiful also deserves equal priority. Hence, make
sure that the detailing and custom works are in rhyme with your own personal style
choices.
We hope you had a great time skimming through our outfit ideas for bride’s besties.
Curating an outfit as the best friend to the bride can be quite
confusing and dilemmatic as the outfit shall resonate with the importance of your
presence and relationship to the soon-to-be-wed.
Added to that, it also helps the guests to understand the main people of the event
whom they can look up to in case of any urgent needs or requirements. We wish you
the most wonderful time during your outfit hunts to ace your bestie’s wedding!
